I've been on it for almost three months. Down from 22-25% bf to 13-14% bf (almsot see abs lol). Lost about net 16lb and increaed my lifts ect quite a bit.... Buddy told me the other day I was bigger then he'd seen me in years... Up until this week I was eating 5000 cals a day but with the fat loss slowing I've cut the cals down to 3500-4000 and am just trying to maintain muscle mass while I cut. I try to stick to only clean/natural carbs on the carb load days

Well I guess it was not pure CKD
Also I'm using a three pinch with a accu measure to mesure fat so I could be off with the begining and ending body fat %.
I started at a size 42 waist and 240. I also cutout coffee and all suger/simple carbs the whole time and pretty much only have been eating sirloin steak and eggs te whole time on non carb days and let me tell ya I am sick of meat and it's easier to eat less then more. The first three weeks were pure atkins with 30 carbs a day ( to get my body switched over), then I switched to CKD and med cal, I was dropping muscle faster them I'd like and got down to 214lb so I upped the cals and kept loosing some fat but at a much much slower pace and managed to regain about 10lb of muscle. Now I'm 6'2", 224lb and a snug size 34, wear a loose size 36 everyday thou. I also took a gakic by muscle tech for energy Pre workout and drank 1.5 gal of water, took bccas ect...
Workouts are typical muscle grouped (back one day, tris one day, chest one day ect) for one hr 4-5 days a week with 20 min of situps every day. I'm currently doing 3 weeksY of lower cal before I start a need2 PH cyc next month...
Pretty tired of it (week 14 now of it) and I am going to switch to TKD to Lean bulk next month, also I'm starting to think I've stalled out and I want to bulk again for 6 weeks, do a 30 day bridge and then cut for 30 days again.

I've used them a few times, always in low keto at the start of the week and low to med (once or twice it was high) by Friday. The key for it working is getting your body switched over to burning fat for energy before you have any carb days. From reading it normally takes about 2 weeks without any carbs (less them 30 daily) before you start your carb load weekend day/s. I did three weeks... Also I only do 1 and 1/2 carb load days normaly but it varys from 1 to a full 2. You really have to watch yourself, once you fill out (you'll know) and don't have the crazy carb cravings it's time to switch back to no carbs.
Maybe i should have tried getting deep into ketosis before i carbed up. None the less I am now pissing medium to high ketones so im good. last week when i carbed p after my workout i got a huge ruish of energy and felt kind of dizzy I assume this is normal since my body is switching from 87 octane to rocket fuel right? lol Well Im only carbing up 24 hours since im hesitant about this for now.

Wait are you taking in carbs after workouts or for 24-48hrs on weekends? I might have miss read your post. I've never gotten dizzy from the diet maybe a little low energy by the end of the 5 days off carbs.
I'm getting my blood work done next week so I'll see were I'm at. Are you taking fish oil to combat the colesteral?

well i started with a 100 gram carbo shake after my friday night workout. Thats when i felt the huge rush, actually i forgot i also took creatin with it so that could have been it too! Anyways after that i had some popcorn, pizza, sour patch kids, more pizza, pasta. all in all i added it up it was about 650 grams in 24 hours. I know i should have keot the fat down but this damn pizza place over here was calling my name.
